Quick Summary
If you invested in ELSS on or around March 31, 2020, you can still claim the 80C tax benefit for the financial year 2019-20. Due to COVID-19 extensions, the deadline to invest in ELSS and claim this benefit has been pushed to June 30, 2020. Therefore, any ELSS investments made up to this extended date are eligible for the FY 2019-20 deduction.

Yes. Since the deadlines are extended in view of COVID-19, you can invest upto June 30, 2020 and claim benefit for FY 2019-20
